Cinematics Producation Test using Kinect and Precatured c3d files

This is a result of my experiments with Kinect and c3d mocaps. Originally, the idea was to put this animation in realtime rendering engine, like Cinebox. Unfortunately Cinebox is not available yet, and the available game engines do not support Allembic format, as far as I know (or other realtime streaming geometry animation).  I used some free c3d files from mocap.cs.cmu.edu, primaraly for all types of run animations, and kinect captures for fights and other unique movements. Both c3d and kinect clips used at this scene are listed at the end of this video.
3d models, simulation, rendering, animation and other was done by me. It is not a commercial work and was done at my free time

This video was produced in collaboration with the allmeo.com for the World Health Organization.

A simple animation made in a comparatively short time - 2-3 weeks actually, including rendering. But anyhow worth to show it here.

Skeletons poses

These guys were rendered with FinalRender. It's just poses so far, but later I'm going to use them in animation with this character.

This is a fragment of a footage clip I did for image stocks. Camera and particles were animated in 3dsmax, masks animation and final compose in afterEffects

Teddy Bear poses

Last winter I made this simple cartoony character to practice in cartoony animation. But as usual things dragged on and I start animating it only now, a year later. These are poses I rendered for image stocks. A bit later I'll post a small animation shot with this guy, which I've already done, and thumbnail drawings for a new one.
